The Grail Diary, made by
Indiana Jonesī father, Henry Jones Sr. from "Last Crusade", was actually
what got me into this hobby. Late one night I was surfing the Net for a
bullwhip, when I stumpled across a webside all about this diary. My first thought
was "Gee, what a bunch of nerds", but somehow the idea of making a diary of my
own became more and more present.

I have always been into
knights-tales, Robin Hood, Prince Valiant and such, and somehow this diary
linked all that into a modern adventure, featuring Indiana Jones.

I felt like a piece of all that
magic was right at hand in making this diary - and so I did.

It was hard work. I
wanted mine to be autentic - as one actually carried by Jones Sr., and not a
photocopied movieprop. So all the text
and all the drawings are handmade by me.

Make Your own!

Should You feel the same need for
a Grail Diary, there are two way to get one. Buy one from one the "amateur"
prop-makers. They often offers their work on E-bay. Just be prepered to pay
around $500 - 900.
